Adelaar is a luxury Indonesia liveaboard and classic Dutch schooner designed for intimate diving cruises, private yacht charters, and conservation-focused journeys across Indonesia’s most biodiverse marine regions. The experience blends world-class diving, refined comfort, tailored service, and remote-island exploration.
Adelaar carries a strong sense of history, with classical yacht-style interiors, rich teakwood detailing, high ceilings, and an atmosphere that feels elegant rather than flashy. It is positioned for travellers who want Indonesia’s remote marine landscapes with a more personal, polished liveaboard experience.
Life onboard is centred on comfort, attentive crew service, relaxed social spaces, and refined dining. Meals combine Indonesian and Western cuisine, prepared onboard with fresh ingredients, with dining served indoors or on deck when conditions allow.
Adelaar’s trips focus strongly on scuba diving and snorkeling, especially in current-rich, biodiverse regions such as Komodo and Alor. Above water, guests can enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, land excursions, cultural encounters, wildlife exploration, and slow cruising through remote island scenery.
Adelaar operates across major Indonesian liveaboard destinations, including Komodo, Raja Ampat, Banda Sea, Alor, Triton Bay, and Wakatobi. Komodo combines dramatic landscapes, Komodo dragons, and vibrant reefs; Raja Ampat is known for exceptional coral and fish biodiversity; Banda Sea and Alor offer remote volcanic seascapes, clear waters, walls, pinnacles, and potential pelagic encounters.
